Create Your Own Summer Camp at Home
Planning some activities for your kids during the summer can help stave off those “I’m bored” comments from children. Plan a summer camp at home. You can plan activities for a week or just one day. Pick a theme for the camp and involve the whole family in planning activities. Each family member can choose the theme for their camp. You might have a lake day with picnics or boating, a museum day to check out art with art activities for everyone to create when you get home, or even a cooking camp. Use your imagination and have fun planning and doing new activities this summer.
